Availability: In stock
The Fujifilm Dimatix StarFire SG1024/LA is a genuine original two-colour industrial inkjet printhead for high-performance textile, wide-format, and commercial decorating applications using solvent, UV-curable, and aqueous inks. The LA designation indicates the large-drop variant in the SG1024 series — with two separate 512-channel ink paths for two-colour operation, VersaDrop adjustable binary jetting, and continuous RediJet ink recirculation. Built on the same field-proven SG1024 platform as the SA, SA-2C, and MA-2C, it delivers consistent long-service-life output in demanding production environments. Every SG1024/LA we sell at Digiprint USA is 100% genuine original Fujifilm Dimatix.

VersaDrop and RediJet Technology
VersaDrop: Enables variable drop sizes in binary mode and user-defined greyscale levels — allowing ink density to be tuned for different coverage requirements without reducing throughput.
RediJet: Continuous ink recirculation at the nozzle and refill chamber prevents pigment settling and keeps solvent, UV, and aqueous inks primed at all times — reducing startup time, maintenance downtime, and open-time issues with fast-drying ink formulations.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between SG1024/LA and SG1024/SA-2C?
Both are two-colour SG1024 heads for solvent, UV, and aqueous inks, but they differ in drop size and resolution. The SA-2C is the small-drop two-colour variant (12–33 pl, 200 dpi). The LA is the large-drop two-colour variant (higher pl range, up to 400 dpi). The choice depends on your system's ink supply and the coverage density your application requires. Contact our team for confirmation before ordering.
Is the SG1024/LA nozzle plate replaceable?
Yes — like all SG1024 variants, the LA uses a collar-mounted replaceable coated metal nozzle plate. It can be removed for cleaning or replaced when worn, extending the service life of the head body in high-volume production environments.
Do you ship StarFire SG1024/LA printheads to Latin America?
Yes — same day shipping from our Doral, Miami FL warehouse. Our Miami location is ideal for Latin American industrial and textile print shops using freight forwarders in the Doral area.
